A new coding technique, based on \textit{fixed block-length} codes, is proposed for the problem of communicating a pair of correlated sources over a $2-$user interference channel. Its performance is analyzed to derive a new set of…
One of the important features of an interconnection network is its ability to efficiently simulate programs or parallel algorithms written for other architectures. Such a simulation problem can be mathematically formulated as a graph…
Let $G$ be a bridgeless cubic graph. Consider a list of $k$ 1-factors of $G$. Let $E_i$ be the set of edges contained in precisely $i$ members of the $k$ 1-factors. Let $\mu_k(G)$ be the smallest $|E_0|$ over all lists of $k$ 1-factors of…
The normal/superconducting phase boundary Tc has been calculated for mesoscopic loops, as a function of an applied perpendicular magnetic field H. While for thin-wire loops and filled disks the Tc(H) curves are well known, the intermediate…
We introduce a notion of the \emph{crux} of a graph $G$, measuring the order of a smallest dense subgraph in $G$. This simple-looking notion leads to some generalisations of known results about cycles, offering an interesting paradigm of…
We present two new types of syndrome extraction circuits for the color code. Our first construction, which after [M. McEwen, D. Bacon, and C. Gidney, Quantum 7, 1172 (2023)] we call the semi-wiggling color code, promises to mitigate leakage…
How many edges can a quadrilateral-free subgraph of a hypercube have? This question was raised by Paul Erd\H{o}s about $27$ years ago. His conjecture that such a subgraph asymptotically has at most half the edges of a hypercube is still…
We study recursive cubes of rings as models for interconnection networks. We first redefine each of them as a Cayley graph on the semidirect product of an elementary abelian group by a cyclic group in order to facilitate the study of them…
Binary cyclic codes have been a hot topic for many years, and significant progress has been made in the study of this types of codes. As is well known, it is hard to construct infinite families of binary cyclic codes [n, n+1/2] with good…
We derive eigenvalue bounds for the $t$-distance chromatic number of a graph, which is a generalization of the classical chromatic number. We apply such bounds to hypercube graphs, providing alternative spectral proofs for results by Ngo,…
In this paper, we prove a tight minimum degree condition in general graphs for the existence of paths between two given endpoints, whose lengths form a long arithmetic progression with common difference one or two. This allows us to obtain…
The following assertion was equivalent to a conjecture proposed by B. Tomaszewski : Let $C$ be an $n$-dimensional unit cube and let $H$ be a plank of thickness $1$, both are centered at the origin, then no matter how to turn the cube…
Thomassen formulated the following conjecture: Every $3$-connected cubic graph has a red-blue vertex coloring such that the blue subgraph has maximum degree $1$ (that is, it consists of a matching and some isolated vertices) and the red…
We consider linear codes associated to Schubert varieties in Grassmannians. A formula for the minimum distance of these codes was conjectured in 2000 and after having been established in various special cases, it was proved in 2008 by…
The ropelength problem asks for the minimum-length configuration of a knotted diameter-one tube embedded in Euclidean three-space. The core curve of such a tube is called a tight knot, and its length is a knot invariant measuring…
Many multiprocessor systems have interconnection networks as underlying topologies and an interconnection network is usually represented by a graph where nodes represent processors and links represent communication links between processors.…
We show that the number of digits in the integers of a creative telescoping relation of expected minimal order for a bivariate proper hypergeometric term has essentially cubic growth with the problem size. For telescopers of higher order…
The circumference $c(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the length of a longest cycle. By exploiting our recent results on resistance of snarks, we construct infinite classes of cyclically $4$-, $5$- and $6$-edge-connected cubic graphs with…
The Fibonacci cube $\Gamma_n$ is the subgraph of the hypercube $Q_n$ induced by vertices with no consecutive $1$s. Recently Jianxin Wei and Yujun Yang introduced a one parameter generalization, Fibonacci $p$-cubes $\Gamma_n^p$, which are…
We show that we cannot avoid the existence of at least one directed circuit of length less than or equal to (n/r) in a digraph on n vertices with out-degree greater than or equal to r. This is well-known Caccetta-Haggkvist problem.
